Aspiring restaurateurs in Park Slope should study this convivial Fifth Avenue pioneer. Nine-year-old al di là remains unsurpassed in the neighborhood. Affable owner Emiliano Coppa handles the inevitable wait (due to the no-reservations policy) with panache. The wait is worth it for co-owner and chef Anna Klinger’s Northern Italian dishes. It would be hard to improve on her braised rabbit with black olives on steaming polenta; even simple pastas, such as the homemade tagliatelle al ragù, are superb.

Park Slope is the brunch mecca of Brooklyn, and Miriam is the holy grail. Whether you want your usual french toast and benedicts, or you’re finally bored of all that and want something next-level - Miriam is here for you. The Israeli spot makes some truly excellent Mediterranean brunch dishes (get the burekas), and the environment is homey but still lively. If you’re looking for a party, get a pitcher or three of sangria.

The typical internal monologue when you don't have dinner plans and don't want to cook usually plays out like this: I want something easy. And fast. And delicious. But also kind of healthy? And maybe with a side of mac and cheese? Purbird is the ideal delivery or super casual eat-in joint because it delivers on all fronts. The thing here is perfect, juicy grilled chicken and awesome sides. And possibly the best mac and cheese in the city.

Entertainment & Activities

Major-league sports at the corner of Atlantic and Flatbush Avenues have been a long time coming—since the 1950s, in fact—but the 18,200-seat Barclays Center is now a reality. Home to the Brooklyn Nets, the arena also features the more intimate 7,700-seat Tidal theater, the Shops at Barclays Center (including the Nets Lifestyle Shop by Adidas), and more than 50 local food vendors. In addition to the Nets, the Barclays Center hosts college and prep basketball, boxing, hockey, circuses, family shows, and concerts ranging from Arcade Fire to Jay Z to Yanni.
